*** glima[AWAY] is now known as glima00:01
elninja__My n810 seems a little looser on the right side than the left, when the keyboard is slid out... The top/bottom half jiggle a little on the right, but not on the left... Is this normal, or is it a sign that my device was poorly assembled and may have future problems?00:01
*** ljp has quit IRC00:01
suihkulokkipeople think that wimax is just like wifi (fast and free), but with better coverage00:01
*** lpotter is now known as ljp00:01
GeneralAntilleslol00:02
*** q__ has quit IRC00:02
jeremiah_I still think WiMax will lose to LTE.00:02
GeneralAntillesI hope the RX-51 is better put together than the N810.00:02
johnxjeremiah_, so do I at this point. but I think there might be room for competition with fixed broadband in rural areas00:03
jeremiah_johnx: Yeah, I suppose that might be an excellent way to use it.00:03
jeremiah_ But I have seen so many WiMax projects falter.00:03
johnxclearwire is doing that already with their draft-wimax network00:03
elninja__GeneralAntilles, are you saying things like i noticed are common?00:04
jeremiah_Here in 'telecom alley', they abandoned WiMax a while ago.00:04
johnxit's only compatible with their own branded wimax adapters though AFAIK00:04
GeneralAntilleselninja__, no, just an idle observation.00:04
elninja__ah00:05
jeremiah_johnx: That is total FAIL - they have to support off the shelf stuff to succeed.00:05
jeremiah_elninja__: I think my N810 is pretty well engineered frankly. I surprised to hear you are having problems.00:05
johnxjeremiah_, I dunno. if they're replacing/competing with DSL/cable service people kind of expect a "rent the modem" scenario00:05
* Jaffa wonders about checking ITT/talk again before bed.00:05
suihkulokkiyeah, wimax (or rather, the fixed point variant of it) will be usefull for rural broadband00:05
suihkulokkibut only when you put a wimax antenna on your roof00:06
JaffaIt's only going to depress me, isn't it (but Stskeeps' post talk intrigues me)00:06
jeremiah_johnx: True, that is definitely true.00:06
GeneralAntillesJaffa, I wasn't able to spot Stskeeps' post, just go to bed and save the depression.00:06
johnxbut yeah, they really need to get their network updated to the real wimax/mobile wimax standard00:06
* jeremiah_ Runs to read Stskeeps' talk post.00:06
johnxI just think they are seeing a lot of cost and no immediate benefit00:07
JaffaWonderfully constructive new poll "Should talk.maemo.org create and support a dark theme like the original ITT?".00:07
lcuk#my only problem with themes is having to be logged in00:08

* Jaffa wonders if SD69 is particularly pissed off as he's not been invited to be a mod.00:14
elninja__jeremiah_, well, I haven't had problems yet. I've only had it 1 day so far, but I noticed that it feels more fragile than I was expecting from new unit.(especially with the sliding mechanism) so far I am really interested in what I can do with the device once I get some time to play with the SDK. I've been burned in the past with devices that failed due to manufacturing defects, and don't want to do something that may void my warr00:15
elninja__anty when I may need to use it.00:15
*** dougt has quit IRC00:15
JaffaAh, yeah - I saw Stskeeps' post on Weds. Good post indeed, Stskeeps++00:16
GeneralAntillesJaffa, either way, I sure aint inviting him. ;)00:16

lcukwe havent incorporated irc thanks yet ;)00:17

elninja__http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17026 <-- cool. I guess this is normal... should have googled it earlier00:20
lcukso 4 people agree and its "normal"00:20
lcukdo you have a clue?00:20

lcukthats like your observation00:22

luke-jr_http://luke.dashjr.org/tmp/snapshot42.png00:24
*** birunko has joined #maemo00:25
Jaffalcuk: Obviously one or more of those people may have accounts on ITT, so I reckon swine flu is an attempt by the maemo.org overlords (am I one?) to take over ITT00:25
lbtwho does irc karma?00:25
*** slonopotamus has quit IRC00:26
* Jaffa considers starting a poll "Who finds themselves coming to these forums less after all the inane whining, rather than constructive action, over the change in theme?" - but that's probably not going to help00:26
* lbt wonders if #mer is part of the maemo community ;)00:26
jeremiah_Jaffa: Probably not -- but everyone involved should know they did a good job.00:26
elninja__lcuk, I came in here to ask if anyone else had experienced this. I was hoping somebody would have some info. I googled it, and on the first page were several mentions of this problem. that thread was one of them where 4 out of 4 of the posts noticed this same quirk on their device. my statement about how I should have googled it was because I can found more info on it there than I did here.00:26
jeremiah_I think th new site looks good.00:26
lcuk#mer is the technical part of the community at this point :)00:26
* lbt agreees with Jaffa and is put of iTT by the bickering...00:27

qwerty12_N800*awesome00:27
qwerty12_N800Jaffa: nope :)00:27
lcukelninja__, ive got 2 n810s here and the slide out drawer acts just the same as it does on both and as on my slider phones and on my kitchen drawers00:28
Jaffaqwerty12_N800: http://twitter.com/sjgadsby/status/167274835900:28
lbtelninja__: actually your sample is such that all you've identified is that you're not alone... OTOH, given the quick response that means it's likely a design feature .... don't worry but keep an eye on it00:28
luke-jr_Jaffa: put the poll somewhere off ITT, so those of us who don't go to ITT can vote00:28
lbtmy keyboard is absolutely rock solid though00:29
Jaffaluke-jr_: The only obvious place is maemo.org, but that'd just feed the conspiracy00:29
jeremiah_Ooh, ooh, I wanna follow andre__ on Twitter!00:29
lcukif i knew how to make a poll i would make a poll asking people what poll they want to post in00:29
jeremiah_What is his handle?00:29
qwerty12_N800Jaffa: lol, thanks for the link...00:29
* Jaffa is now, honestly, looking forward to 2 weeks camping and avoiding all this stupidity.00:29
luke-jr_heh00:29
jeremiah_lcuk: Face it, you would ask about liqbase. :)00:30
lcukwhere u camping jaffa00:30
johnxlcuk, I liked the "Do you vote in polls?" poll. I think "No" won ...00:30
luke-jr_well, maybe someone should have checked that the design actually works before deploying it00:30
lcukjeremiah_, not at all i do that enough face to face :)00:30
Jaffalcuk: Normandy (well, camping ~= static Eurocamp caravan)00:30
luke-jr_Jaffa: maemo.org is somewhat broken too00:30
johnxluke-jr_, fine. I'll bite: What doesn't it work on?00:30
luke-jr_johnx: the top-menu thing is screwed up across both sites00:31

Jaffajeremiah_: all your French seems to conclude with swear words ;-)00:41
luke-jr_johnx: the highest score00:41
jeremiah_Jaffa: Well, you know, they are the easiest to learn. =)00:41
luke-jr_Firefox 3.0.10: 71/10000:41
johnxluke-jr_, webkit gets 100/100. Are you saying konqueror gets higher? :P00:41
luke-jr_Konqueror 4.2.2: 87/10000:41
luke-jr_Opera 9.64: 85/10000:42

johnxluke-jr_, even if they're part of a released browser?00:42
luke-jr_I don't use scm KDE00:42
luke-jr_johnx: what released browser?00:42
Jaffajeremiah_: c'est vrai00:42
luke-jr_Wikipedia has Safari 3.2.2 as latest Webkit00:42
luke-jr_oh, sorry00:43

luke-jr_wtf is tear00:44
johnxlet me send you a link to the thread on itt00:45
luke-jr_johnx: I won't read it if it's on ITT00:45

luke-jr_johnx: ah, so ITT is officially only supported in non-released browsers?00:45
jeremiah_Yeah, try a working browser like friggin' pork-sandwich.00:46
Jaffaluke-jr_: Don't be dramatic; it works in firefox - there's obviously a glitch. It's hardly personal ;-)00:46
luke-jr_Firefox sucks ;)00:46
jeremiah_The Interwebs hate me.00:47
JaffaAt a first glance, my opinion of Konqueror's not much better ;-)00:47
jeremiah_That I know for sure.00:47

GeneralAntillesTechnology is the worst.00:47
jeremiah_Is that emoticon meant to mean; "I am very disappointed in you."?00:47
johnxluke-jr_, it works on basically *every* other browser besides konqueror. what is the most likely explanation here?00:48
luke-jr_every other browser has a bug that it abuses? ;)00:48
luke-jr_or it has a bug that every other browser fails to expose00:48
GeneralAntillesjeremiah_, that's the internets hating you. :P00:48

JaffaAnd if the bug report for KSnapshot's buggered, you'll have to report a bug against your browser... and that way recursive madness will lie ;-)02:02

sp3000as it is it's all a huge slippery slope into a gaping timesink03:06
sp3000where you wake up on the other side several hours later03:07
GeneralAntillesHehe03:07
lcukwhen i download the source with apt so i can work on it, where is the most common location to put it03:07
lcukis there a general convention03:07
GeneralAntillessp3000, ever played 5 Degrees of Jesus? :P03:07
sp3000don't think so03:07
GeneralAntillesStart with Special:Random then try to get to the article on Jesus in five clicks or less.03:08
johnxlcuk, if you apt-get source foo, then it ends up in ./03:08
lcukyeah johnx, but do ppl use a logical set of folders or just randomly drop source everywhere03:09
sp3000oh, darn, I can't start at jesus and thry to find my way to teletubbies in five steps or less? :)03:09
johnxI tend to keep a projects/mer/working directory03:09
GeneralAntillessp3000, that sounds impossible.03:10

lcuk /projects or ~/projects?03:10

Davidexnt I'm trying to understand exactly what I'm doing sorry guys if I"m thick, just new to this.  So with this command dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1 of swap.img bs 512000 count=106:58
DavideI will create an image swap file on my current FAT partition which is mmcblk0p106:58
radic__xnt: on a mounted partition too?06:58
Davideis that correct?06:58

radic__fill the file withe zeros07:00
Davideso that will automatically fill the file with zeros?07:00
Davideoh if I write dd if=/dev/zero of=swap.img bs 512000 count=107:01

radic__tank-man: you think he dosn't do swapoff before deleting?07:55
Davidetank-man, radic__, I didn't know of the existence of swapoff, but thanks.  I actually accidentally created a 512kb swap like an dummy LOL and I just deleted it without doing swapoff.  THen I just created a new swap file with the same name and 512MB size. and turned it back on etc... seems to work fine.  Could I have caused some deeper issues with that?07:58
luke-jr_Davide: you did swapoff before making the 512 MB swap file08:00
luke-jr_so you're ok08:00
DavideI didn't do swapoff at all luke-jr_08:00
Davide:(08:00
penguinbaitNo, Davide, any problems caused by that would go away on a reboot.  IT is possible your running system could bug out, but again 1 reboot should fix any possibility of that08:00
luke-jr_Davide: then you couldn't have make a new partition08:00
luke-jr_or are we talking files?08:01
Davidefiles08:01
luke-jr_in which case, the 512 KB file still exists until you swapoff08:01
luke-jr_even if you removed its filename08:01
luke-jr_Davide: filenames are not files ;)08:02
luke-jr_files are refcounted08:02
luke-jr_they only get deleted when nothing is using them08:02
luke-jr_you can have more than one filename point to the same file, for instance08:02
luke-jr_echo test > a ; ln a b ; echo hi >> b; cat a08:02
luke-jr_08:02
DavideI see when I delete the file from file manager I am deleting that name but the system is still looking at those allocated bytes?08:03
luke-jr_Davide: the file still exists08:03
radic__if I remove in the /etc/fstab the noexec option for /dev/mmcb1k0p1 then I can execute files on it?08:04
luke-jr_radic__: depends on filesystem08:04
*** gopi has joined #maemo08:04
radic__luke-jr_: vfat08:04
Davideso each time I reboot the swap file gets disabled?08:04
Davideit's disabled looks like08:05
luke-jr_radic__: vfat doesn't have an execute bit, so you might need more options to auto-enable it08:05
penguinbaitNo radic, I do not think that will make any difference08:05
radic__the internal card is withe ext2 formated08:05
luke-jr_Davide: btw, you never want to put swap internal08:05
luke-jr_Davide: and avoid swap external too08:05
penguinbaityou can create a file on vfat and format it as ext and mount it and then execute files from it08:05
luke-jr_penguinbait: there is some mount option to make them all +x08:06
Davideluke-jr_ on the external card? oh that's what I had done08:06
luke-jr_Davide: swap is bad for flash08:06
penguinbaitluke, never seen that??08:06

penguinbaitnot on vfat08:06
Davideso create a swap partition penguinbait?08:06
penguinbait, I guess I never tried to fix it, just worked around it?08:06
Davideso it's better to create a swap partition than a file in vfat?08:07
luke-jr_Davide: vfat SD08:07
luke-jr_Davide: but like I said, avoid swap if you can08:07
penguinbaitDavid, sorry what are you trying to do?08:07
penguinbaitwhat do you mean avoid swap if you can?08:08
luke-jr_penguinbait: radic__: fmask=0666 I think08:08
penguinbaitYuo want a swap partition08:08
luke-jr_penguinbait: swap will ruin the SD card faster than normal use08:08
Davidemy original question was the fact that I have cloned to the internal sd card and created a 1gb approximately of vfat on the first part of the partition and the rest to the OS08:08
penguinbaitor swap file08:08
penguinbaitBS08:08
luke-jr_swap file on vfat will ruin it slower than swap partition08:08
Davideand I was wanting to create a swap in that VFAT08:08
Davideor part of that VFAT08:08
penguinbaitOR at least in my three years of doing this I have never ruined an SD/MMC/ card08:09
DavideI followed the wiki guide on maemo.org08:09
Davideso now I have 2 partitions08:09
Davidemmcblk0p1 0,30000,608:09
Davideand mmcblk0p2 30001,,08:09
luke-jr_penguinbait: great, how often do you use swap?08:09
penguinbaitluke not really, actually there is an extra memory buffor when it runs on vfat, but either way, you just need swap08:09
Davidethe first is VFAT the second is 8308:09
luke-jr_penguinbait: vfat does some wear levelling08:10
Davideso how can I split that vfat partition in half and have half be swap and half be storage?08:10
penguinbaitAlways08:10
penguinbaiton my tablet08:10
luke-jr_penguinbait: also, flash cards are optimized/designed for vfat08:10
penguinbaitas soon as its enabled it starts using it, at the first website08:10
luke-jr_Davide: tbh, I'd use a file08:10
GeneralAntillesDavide, you don't need more than 128MB of swap.08:11
luke-jr_you *can't use* more than 128 MB of swap ;p08:11
penguinbaittype free in xterm and you will see it used08:11
*** christefano has joined #maemo08:11
GeneralAntillesluke-jr_,  that's clearly not true.08:11
Davidewhy not? can you elaborate?08:11
luke-jr_GeneralAntilles: from experience, I've seen 128 MB swap the limit before watchdog resets from swappiness08:11
penguinbaitIf you do not have swap enabledyou can hang and crash more often08:11
luke-jr_maybe the high performance SD patch helps a bit, not sure08:12
Davideso virtual memory would be more than enough?08:12
penguinbaitI have seen as high as 256mb swap before death08:12
penguinbaityes David08:12
luke-jr_penguinbait: hmm, maybe not actively swapping then?08:12
GeneralAntilles1.5x RAM is a good guideline for swap on most things, but our flash is slow enough that 1:1 is recommended.08:13
penguinbaitfire up KDE, and tell me if your activly swaping?08:13
DavideI mean if using more swap like 512 that would not mean that you could run for example more applications at once?08:13
luke-jr_my N810 is building Python right now08:13
luke-jr_penguinbait: IIRC, no08:13

Davideluke-jr_ I see I guess I just don't know how swapping works... I don't understand what the system does exactly when it swaps08:16
luke-jr_Davide: it copies something in memory to the swap file/partition08:16
GeneralAntillesDavide, it uses mass storage devices as RAM, basically.08:16
luke-jr_then when it needs that memory again, it reads it back08:16
*** glima is now known as glima[AWAY]08:16
Davideand the reason it would become so slow like you say arises from what?08:16
penguinbaitDavid, it take memory and puts it on disk, to make room for more important insctructions08:16
luke-jr_yes, SD read/write is slow08:16
luke-jr_very slow compared to real RAM08:17
luke-jr_so for 512 MB swap, you'd need to basically read and write a full 128 MB four times per cycle08:17
luke-jr_not exactly, but summarizing08:17
penguinbaityes luke-jr, but it has been my experience with some type of swap, systems will crash more often08:17
penguinbaitoops08:18
penguinbaitwithout08:18
luke-jr_penguinbait: that's when you run out ;)08:18
Davideoh so the size of the swap determines how much data has to be written each cycle?08:18
luke-jr_Davide: no, the amount of swap you use08:18
luke-jr_and unused swap is usually just a waste08:18
GeneralAntillespenguinbait, it's a fine line to walk between OOM killings and watchdog killings.08:18

lcuk810what do you mean11:43
lcuk810why would your im care where it is placed as long as its visible11:44
lcuk810as an input method you should be subserviant11:44
AStormyes11:45
AStormbut I'd like to know where to display the input surface11:46
lbt'lo lcuk81011:46
AStormbecause another window is inconvenient and resizes windows in matchbox11:46
lcuk810\o11:46
AStormso, I'd put an overlay11:46
lcuk810not your prob astorm, job of hildon isnt it11:47
AStormto do that, I need x,y of the textbox11:47
AStormsure it is, it's an input method11:47
lcuk810that should be feasible tho, dont you get a reference to the current activecontrol11:48
lcuk810i know im used to having context avail in vb lol11:49
AStormXID of the "textbox window" you say11:49
lcuk810yeah or gtkbox11:49
AStormyes, I could use low-level X functions to grab that11:49
AStormexcept I still have to cheat and send events at the box to simulate key input11:49
AStorminstead of having proper functions for this11:49
AStormif I want real-time input11:50
lcuk810mmh an input method shouldnt try to get hands on the app itself rly?  it should supply an input stream only11:51
AStormyeah, but not in a way of sending text around11:52
lcuk810think speech recognition, no ui, just moving cursor and pushing text in11:52
AStormthis means it can't do real-time input11:52
AStormyes, but current input is pure block of text11:52
lcuk810course it can just like a bt keyboard can11:53

AStormtoo slow = not enough bandwidth for real sound12:37
RST38hdepends on your definition of real sound12:37
AStormneed 10 Mbit12:37
AStorm44100 kHz, 16bit, stereo12:37
AStormuncompressed or lossless12:38
RST38h64kbd should be enough12:38
AStorm1 Mbit.12:38
aladdsStskeeps: looks fun12:38
AStormactually, 1,5 Mbit12:38
RST38hSound compresses REALLY well, so you do not need 1Mbaud12:38
AStormso BT with EDR *might* do it12:38
AStormnot that well12:38
RST38h64kbaud is enough12:38
AStormFlac has 50% ratio12:38
AStormanything more than this means expensive hardware to decode12:39
Stskeepsaladds: we build simultaneously for debian armel/x86, ubuntu armel/x86, without any scratchbox etc12:39
aladdsnice12:39
RST38hAStorm: just sending deltas instead of absolute values will compress sound by 50%12:39
RST38hor more12:39
Stskeepsno arm hardware involved, too, or arm systems emulated :P12:39
RST38hdepending on what you are compressing of course12:39
AStormno, that will give you 20-25%12:39
AStormI know, because flac does this too :)12:39
RST38hon white noise (44kHz) it will give you 012:39
AStormyep12:39
AStormbut white noise is nice, because it's uniform12:40
RST38hon a guitar quartet it will give you 90%12:40
AStormso in longer term it compresses well12:40
AStormnah, 90% from a real sound is impossible12:40
AStormas in, real-life recording12:40
RST38hif you simply delete it and regenerate it on the other end, yes12:40
AStormunless it's lossy12:40
RST38hbut I guess it won't work well because most noise isn't really white :))12:40
*** myosound has quit IRC12:40

AStormstill, flac can do noise well, has some additional tricks apart from Rice encoding12:41
*** Meizirkki has joined #maemo12:41
* RST38h is surprised flac only compresses audio by 50%12:41
AStormbut 1,5 Mbit should pass through BT w/ EDR12:41
RST38hway to low imho12:41
AStormit's fast12:41
AStormit's average 50%12:41
AStormor so12:42
RST38hah12:42
AStormon fast setting12:42
RST38hso it is worse on rock, better on strings...12:42
AStormand it's mostly a static codec12:42
AStormnah, actually, it's not bad on any real input12:42
AStormthe main advantage it's that its static and lossless12:43
AStormso needs little CPU power12:43
AStormalso, it's open - I wonder why it hasn't been adopted for that BT standard12:43
RST38h"static" == "losless"?12:43
AStormthere's even an open royalty-free hardware implementation12:43
AStormno12:43
RST38hthen what?12:43
AStormstatic means it doesn't use dynamic codebooks and random advanced tricks12:43
RST38h(well BT has had limited bandwidth historically so they probably consider flac wasteful)12:44
RST38hah ok12:44
AStormso it's very simple to decode12:44
AStormwell, 1,5 Mbit is wasteful12:44
AStorm700 kbps is not12:44
AStorm:)12:44
RST38hso in a sense "static" ~= "stateless"12:44
AStormand with BT+EDR it can be easily done12:44
RST38hif it does not construct codebook dynamically12:44
AStormalmost, it has some small amount of state, but yes, that's it12:44
AStormit does construct the codebook dynamically12:44
AStormon encoding12:44
RST38hah12:44
AStormthe trick is that there's one codebook, and it's not changed every some random amount of time12:45
AStormand many other tricks that advanced lossless encoders use12:45
AStormthe lookahead is also limited12:45
AStormso buffering one block is enough12:45

derfAStorm: FLAC doesn't _guarantee_ a compression ratio (no lossless codec can), which tends to make hardware designers nervous.12:51
* RST38h to his surprise found that the R500 works in sunlight WITHOUT the backlight12:52

*** igagis has quit IRC12:53

*** igagis has joined #maemo12:53

derf"(no lossless codec can)"12:53
derflcuk: Plus one bit.12:53

AStormit *almost always* compresses better than 30%12:53
AStormin mathematical senfse12:54
AStorm*sense12:54
RST38h"almost" has no meaning in mathematical sense.12:54
AStormit has.12:54
lcuki think we should just outlaw "1" bits12:54
derfRST38h: Yes it does.12:54
derf"Almost always" means everywhere except a set of measure zero.12:54
RST38hWell you can define it, like they do in approximation algorithms theory12:54
RST38hderf: mmm,ok12:55
derfIt is a strict mathematical term.12:55
RST38hderf: does it apply to physical entities though?12:55
AStormyes, it means everywhere except if the signal has maximum entropy12:55
derfIf you can put them in a measure space, yes.12:55
derfAnd most physical entities map to measure spaces very well.12:55
AStormbut you could extend flac to do lossy... like WavPack12:56
AStormstill, that's FLAC 2, not FLAC ;P12:56
*** matt_c has joined #maemo12:56
AStormlike MPEG-4 SLS12:56
* RST38h points out that any audio with percussion instruments is pretty high up there in terms of entropy12:57
AStormno, it's not, because that's mostly pink noise12:57
RST38hSo, good luck compressing that death metal CD =)12:57
AStormcheck out how well that compresses with FLAC - you'll be suprised12:58
RST38hhmmm12:58
AStormnote volume changes rarely12:58
RST38hit does not compress well with MP3, that is for sure12:58
AStormso Rice coding will drop most bits12:58
derfThat's because MP3 is a transform codec.12:58
AStormyeah, MP3 is sucky on transients12:58
AStormyup12:58
RST38hBut how would FLAC compress it if it is noise, i.e. consists of random unpredictable sequences of samples?12:59
AStormit's not noise, hehe12:59
derfIt's _shaped_ noise.12:59
AStormyes12:59
RST38hYou are not supposed to lose any sequences. You can't make a codebook because they are pretty random.12:59
derfThat's what "pink" means.12:59
AStorm"pretty" random12:59
AStormlike a fractal12:59
AStormsee how well fractals compress13:00
RST38hShaped or not shaped, you have got a semirandom input sequence13:00
AStormnot *that* random.13:00
RST38hWhich you are not allowed to lose13:00
AStormit's still predictable13:00

AStormvolume changes rarely, for example13:00
*** filip42 has joined #maemo13:00
* RST38h finds this counterintuitive13:00
AStormcompression is not that intuitive, yes13:01
RST38hNot *that* weird though, no =)13:01
RST38hOr maybe those percussion tracks are not as random as they seem...13:02
RST38hAlso weird.13:02
AStormyes, they're not random13:02
AStormthe most random part is the *timing* of the spike13:02
AStormbut that doesn't matter with a linear predictor, which can reproduce transients perfectly, even if they won't compress that well13:03
*** mat`` is now known as mat13:03
AStorm(the falling part is predictable though)13:03

derfWavlets are overrated.13:05
AStorma bit, yes13:05
AStormto compress well with them, a lot of CPU power is needed...13:05

AStormso, who needs 2.6.21 again?14:48
lbtsorry GeneralAntilles but if you aim to measure discussion aimed at contributing to the maemo community then I think you are wrong. If you aim to measure chat in #maemo then fair enough.14:50
lbt"I can't think of a way to bound the number of channels" is a bad counter argument but a valid problem14:51
GeneralAntilleslbt, so you want to index #canola, #carman, #tinymail, etc? Hell, I've done a fair bit of community work in my own clan channel #trem-null, so we can index that too. ;)14:51
lbtwhat is the aim?14:51
lbtmeasure discussion aimed at contributing to the maemo community ?14:51
lbtso yes14:51
GeneralAntillesAnyway, whatever, let's start from #maemo and then go from there.14:52
lbtthe objective looks like it needs more work to achieve.... that's all14:52
lbtis canola a major application on maemo?... hmm, let me see the download stats....14:53
lbtand it shows the devs are active and they deserve karma....14:53
lbtanyhow, as you say, lets take it from #maemo.... but let's not forget the aim is not to measure #maemo14:53
GeneralAntillesYou HAVE to come up with concrete guidelines for what's a justified channel.14:54

GeneralAntilleshttp://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?p=283892#post28389215:16
Jaffalbt: The other counter-argument to anything other than #maemo (or rather against #canola et al) is that the product-based chats get their authors karma for downloads.15:17
JaffaThe argument for indexing #maemo is, pretty much, IMHO about recognising people who contribute in the *main* Maemo community spaces.15:17
lbtthat works for the whole team does it?15:17
Jaffalbt: can do - you can have multiple authors against a product15:17
lbtor just the main uploader?15:17
JaffaFor example, mgedmin and I both get karma for https://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/vim/15:18
GeneralAntilleslbt, you can add as many authors as you want to the Downloads entry.15:18
GeneralAntillesPeople are awfully quick to say how useless they think the wiki is, but I've yet to see them offer to lend a hand improving it.15:18
lbtyou can see how #canola would proportianally represent the team though15:18
GeneralAntillesFor that specific example, they're almost all in here anyway.15:19
lbtwell, I kinda started it for #mer... and realised it wasn't just us :)15:19
Jaffalbt: indeed. I'm willing to accept their may be additional channels to include, but let's start with #maemo (after all, there's /some/ resistance to that) and go from there.15:19
JaffaActually, concrete proposal: #maemo and #mer to start with.15:19
JaffaSince #mer is the future for current Maemo-based devices (we all hope ;-))15:20

RST38hgood for Intel monopoly though =)19:49
AStormall that is done in dosbox already19:49
AStormwe have to add the JIT for CPU if possible19:49
RST38hI know it is, but not quickly enough19:49

RST38hLet me see...20:04
RST38h386 did one instruction in 4-8 clocks, on the average20:04
AStormexcept we have to simulate gfx scanlining20:05
RST38hI.e. we are talking about 2-4MIPS20:05
AStormand do some scaling20:05
lcukpupnik, you mentioned dangerous work, heres an outline of what happened http://slashdot.org/~LiquidCoooled/journal/22909720:05
RST38hAh forget graphics for now, VGA graphics is really simple anyway20:05
lcukgraphics on 810 are fast enough20:05
pupnikgood grief lcuk20:06
RST38hYes, you should be able to do 2-4MIPS on N8x020:06
AStormexcept you have to simulate the scanlines and scale the output... (the latter can be hardware, I also want an Xv driver for dosbox)20:06
pupnikyou could bank on my prediction RST38h :) too much time spent with dosbox20:06
